It takes about 500 kilometers from Cancun to Havana, and the economic speed of the "Perry" class frigate will take about one day. The three frigates departing from Cancun, led by the "Brook", and Colonel Harrington, who led the team, received a reminder from the commander not long after departure.

"Pay attention to air defense and anti-submarine?" The colonel frowned slightly as he looked at the telegram sent to his hand. General Blüchel finally trained such a fleet of flesh-hearted people, so he naturally despised his opponent strategically and should pay attention to it tactically.

Colonel Harrington also understood that he had a great responsibility and expressed his contempt for the enemy verbally to boost morale. In terms of action, the security of warships is not only for the army, but also for his own future.

"Young guys, be alert. The radar and sonar departments should always pay attention to the situation around the warships. If we are attacked by someone, it will not be just a shame, but many people will not be able to go home."

Colonel Harrington was on the bridge and really opened his eyes wide for fear of accidents. The Perry-class frigate is an old warship that the United States has long retired. Its equipment is aging and it is very difficult to deal with modern fighter jets and submarines. If the enemy really masters some powerful weapon, it is still very threatening.

"I'm mainly worried about the plane." Colonel Harrington heard about the air battle that happened two or three days ago and knew that the opponent had a good air force. The Perry class was equipped with the "Standard 1" air defense missile. If the opponent launched a overwhelming air strike, it would be difficult to deal with it.

The air defense range of ‘Standard 1’ reaches forty or fifty kilometers. Within this distance, the propeller plane needs to fly over for at least five or six minutes before entering the attack position.

Perhaps the Aurora Legion's "Super Toucan" is equipped with guided bomb weapons, but now satellite guidance has disappeared and laser guidance requires illumination, so it is impossible to launch an attack outside the "Perry"-class air defense fire circle.

The MK-92 fire control system of the Perry class can control two air defense missiles at the same time for defense, and the three Perry class can deal with six incoming enemy aircraft at the same time. With a flight speed of 'standard-1', it can be shot down before the enemy aircraft gets close.

"Unless our enemies dispatch hundreds of fighter jets in one go, we all have enough reaction time and ammunition to shoot them down one by one." Colonel Harrington was still a little confident through simple calculations.

If the opponent really dispatched hundreds of fighter jets so crazily, then the long-range radar and the Seahawk helicopter equipped with the "Perry" class can also be discovered in advance. Colonel Harrington felt that he would not have fallen into the trap so stupidly.

"No matter what the enemy does, we have a way to deal with it." Colonel Harrington and the officers of the radar and missile departments repeatedly discussed it, and felt that their safety was still guaranteed. "Let us bravely go forward and create merits."

The three Perry class ships arrived at the Florida Strait in one day. The width of this strait is less than 200 kilometers. To the north is Florida, the United States, and to the south is Havana, the capital of Cuba. The cautious Colonel Harrington pulled his fleet to the sea one hundred kilometers away from Havana.

"Have you discovered anything about the radar?" asked the colonel.

The officers who control the radar reported: "Sir, we detected multiple aircraft over Havana. The most special one is a aircraft hovering at an altitude of 8,000 meters. We judged it to be a drone. If it carries the radar, it is likely that we have already discovered it."

"Eye of Havana?" Colonel Harrington also stared at the radar screen, thinking about how to kill this annoying air sentry. "It's a pity that we don't have the 'Standard-2' air defense missile with a range of nearly 200 kilometers, otherwise we could just shoot it down."

The last time Colonel Harrington came to attack Havana port, he used the guidance of a carrier-based helicopter to launch the "Harpoon" anti-ship missile with a range of more than 100 kilometers. This time he wondered if he would have a few missiles first, luring his opponent to launch air strikes on him and then consume his strength?

But at this time, a "Seahawk" helicopter with a radar guide pod suddenly sent a message, "Sir, a large number of speedboats appeared from the direction of Havana and rushed directly to us."

"Speed ​​boats? Hahaha..., we have already left this sea area by the time these speedboats have run a hundred kilometers of sea routes." Colonel Harrington said dismissively, "Are you ready to launch the 'harpoon' missile, the target..."

But before the Colonel thought about who to use the harpoon, the Seahawk who just reported reminded him again: "There are also a large number of reflection points from the direction of Florida. It is initially judged that at least fifty speedboats below 100 tons are rushing towards us."

Yohe..., this has been arranged long ago!

Colonel Harrington's fleet was in the middle of the Florida Strait. As soon as he saw this, he knew that the opponent was prepared. The Aurora Legion used the cover of the coast and islands to arrange a large number of speedboats in advance to standby, waiting for the opponent to come in and rely on the drones in the air to determine the target to launch an attack.

"Preparing for electronic interference." Colonel Harrington did not dare to neglect. He was afraid that these speedboats would be equipped with anti-ship missiles. It would be no fun to have a rain of missiles at that time. "A hundred-ton speedboat has little threat, and even if it is equipped with missiles, it would not be too advanced."

This is true. At least as far as the colonel knows, whether it is Cuba or South America, missile boats are very old. Moreover, the missiles equipped by these missiles are all grandfather-level things, and the electronic jamming equipment equipped on the "Perry" class can easily deceive them.

In order to avoid being beaten up, the three Perry-class ships avoided and kept the distance from these speedboats as much as possible. After all, the combat distance of the speedboats is limited, and maybe they will be out of fuel after running around a hundred kilometers at high speed. When they are over, they can do whatever they want to clean up.

Although the speed of the speedboat is far faster than that of the frigate, it will take at least five or six hours to catch up after running dozens or hundreds of kilometers. This is also the reason why Colonel Harrington is not afraid.

But once the chase began, it seemed that there was no end. When three or four hours passed, the "Brook"'s own sea search radar could detect dense sea targets, the Colonel finally felt something was wrong.

A Seahawk helicopter even plucked the courage to fly over to see what happened to these speedboats? As a result, the pilot replied: "Sir, these are not missile boats, but ordinary speedboats and torpedo boats. They just run fast, and are not even armed."

What……?

This situation really didn't appear in Colonel Harrington's idea, but now the facts are in front of him, and a word immediately popped up in his heart..., Suicide speedboat.

"Order the 'Seahawks' to intercept these speedboats and order the three warships to speed up their departure. We met a group of madmen."

The original beautiful fantasy was instantly shattered, and Colonel Harrington felt that he had encountered his opponent's desperate bet on the Aurora Legion, and he didn't play any high-tech or exquisite tactics at all. He was just playing with you!

But when the house was raining all night, the "Sea Eagle" flying in the sky reported again: "Sir, we have a little wrong estimate of the number of enemy speedboats. The two north and south groups together have more than 200. And on the road ahead of us, we saw about 100 speedboats rushing over."

Damn… Colonel Harrington felt a little numb when he heard this number. He never expected that his opponent would be so cruel when he started to go crazy. "Are all the people driving speedboats crazy? What's the use of rushing up like this? We can kill them with machine guns."

A "Seahawk" has followed up close above a speedboat, and can see the operators on the speedboat's bridge through the porthole.
